Any society that would give up a little liberty for a little security deserves neither and will lose both.

The Garden

I haven't devoted as much time as I'd like to writing Mitoosense lately. I began planting a vegetable garden on May 10th. The planting took about a week. It could have taken much longer had it not been for the rototiller donated by Chris.






Since planting I have weeded and watered daily. The results so far are Jalapeno and Bell pepper are up. Cucumbers, Zucchini, Eggplants and Summer Squash are knee high and producing well. The cucumbers aren't protected by Brinks. The sign is to allow the vines to climb rather than overrun the Peppers. Tomatoes on the vines and the size of golf balls. Butter Beans or Lima Beans were planted last. They all should be ready next month



Watermelon, Honeydew and Cantaloupe vines are also bearing fruit. The cost of seeds and plants was about $14.00 this year and I expect a Goldman Sachs return and bonus on my investment. Ya can't do this well on the DOW JONES.
